It's a thriller! Will they make it alive?:eek:

HEY NL CENTRAL TEAMS - IE THE CUBS AND THE BREWERS!
HERE COME THE CARDINALS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:p

I posted this on Monday.

Tuesday: Indians 8, Twins 3
Wednesday: Indians 6, Twins 5
Thursday: Indians 4, Twins 3

Maybe "several" was an exaggeration... :cool:

Several, or not, enough is enough.
Tigers 4-1/2 back.

Hey, thanks for that, Nevada. I've forwarded it to one of my dear friends, who's an avid Twins fan.

Oh yeah, ....
Thanks a lot Nevada ! :)

Not to worry though, Bonderman is pitching today in Kansas City.
He's looking to improve on his 1st inning ERA of 12.84 !

So, did the Cardinals enjoy their day in second place?

Ok, here's one of them "huh!" statistics I heard the other night. While listening to the Cubs game, the announcers mentioned that on that date a few years back, one of the Cub outfielders made an unassisted double play. Runner on second takes off (I don't know if it was a hit-and-run, or if they thought there was 2 outs), and a sinking line drive was hit out towards shallow left center. The left fielder comes running in, makes the catch, and just continues on running towards second to step on the base for the double play. I thought that was very unusual that an outfielder gets a chance to make an unassisted double play. Infielders do it all the time. Outfielders are involved with many "catch and throw" double plays, but not necessarily unassisted. Until I heard the stat: in the majors, since 1990, it's happened 7 times!

Huh!

Since stats have been kept, there have been 13 unassisted triple plays. None, however, by an outfielder. There was another one credited in 1878 but under today's scoring rules, it would have only been an unassisted double play.

FWIW - Bill Wambsganss had his in the same World Series game in which Elmer Smith hit the first grand slam in Series history (Oct. 10, 1920). I know, I was there. ;)

BTW - the first unassisted triple play in NL history was made Oct. 6, 1923 by a Boston Braves shortstop named Ernie Padgett. We're related on my uncle Ernie the Muppet's side. Here he is with his live-in boyfirend, Bert (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Geeze, looks like Bert broke up with Cookie Monster. That's too bad, it was always nice to see the twinkle in Bert's eye when Cookie Monster said "Me want cookie now".

Ernie had Bert first. That darn Cookie Monster is nothing more than a home wrecker.

Great baseball thread, huh? :rolleyes:
